I really don’t know what to think of this:
Scientists for the first time have cloned a dog. But don’t count on a better world populated by identical and resourceful Lassies just yet.
That’s because the dog duplicated by South Korea’s cloning pioneer, Hwang Woo-suk, is an Afghan hound, a resplendent supermodel in a world of mutts, but ranked by dog trainers as the least companionable and most indifferent among the hundreds of canine breeds.
The experiment extends the remarkable string of laboratory successes by Hwang, but also reignites a fierce ethical and scientific debate about the rapidly advancing technology.
I guess there is medical value in these experiments so I am withholding judgment on the ethical values of cloning, but I wonder how the boshintang industry views dog cloning?

You can eat as much dogs as you want!

I want to look into this further and I may create my own post on the subject but I am not sure what is new about the cloning. I don't think the technique was any different, just much larger in number. I have heard that mroe than 1000 embryos were prepared with only one (or possibly three) coming to term.
I am not concerned with the ethics of dog cloning but can see that the science can lead to problems and confusion.
